Uday Kiran B - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers the capability to customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything
The best thing is we can customize it. For example, there are some standard procedures in CRM, the opportunity that is standard. Other than that, we can create customized software on a business-to-business basis. So, if I don't want to follow any standard upgrade of CRM, I can customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything. I can make my own CRM. The analytics in Oracle CX Sales are good. We can use ODA (Oracle Digital Assistant) to track data. There are some out-of-the-box reports for things like currency exchange data or product lists. These features are there by default. If you need to create new custom reports, it's possible to do so. They've been lagging behind the visual builder recently, but the product has improved.
GodfreyNoel - PeerSpot reviewer
Excellent user experience with ease of use and reliable technical support
When SAP CRM does the maintenance, it can take a long time, which can impact business continuity because we have to wait for the maintenance team to finish their work. Maybe if SAP could establish how you can access the tool using a cloud-based environment that would be virtualization, that would be better.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The integration with other systems is easy."
"It covers sales very well."
"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process."
"It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"Account management is a very good feature. It is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account. The data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"Stability depends on the implementation, but overall, it's quite high."
"The most valuable feature is real-time data. You don't have to go to the finance team for information. On one screen, you can see if stock is available and check the customer's outstanding balance, and then you can process the order. SAP CRM's integration with other applications is easier."
"Once the lead is matured, you can convert it into an opportunity and you can track it by the opportunity based on the product segment."
"The stability is good."
"The most valuable feature for me is the flexibility to consolidate the products."
"The primary use case for us is lead creation and data management."
"The most important factor for recommending SAP CRM is its integration with the core SAP platform. Globally, most enterprises are using SAP as an ERP platform to manage their key business functions. SAP CRM has out-of-the-box integration with the core SAP platform. You can integrate your pre-sales and post-sales into the single platform on the SAP CRM very easily, and you can extend that CRM to your customers who can actually see what is happening to their orders—such as whether it is dispatched or not dispatched or at what stage it is—simply by logging onto the CRM platform."
"The user interface is excellent."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
 

Cons

"The address fields can be limiting on a global scale, with issues like long addresses and different styles for pin codes."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"Improvements for Oracle CX Sales include enhancing the user interface (UI) to meet modern standards. Many clients prefer a more optimized UI over the classic one. The market is moving towards better UI and UX design coupled with functionalities. Oracle has a tool called VBCS that can help improve the UI. With VBCS, the look and feel of the application can be completely transformed. For example, Oracle CX Sales has been implemented for Ferrari, a top automotive industry player."
"We have had some issues with integration between our old database and the Oracle CX Sales Cloud, but it has been working well for the time being."
"They've been lacking in creating customization from scratch and in sales."
"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"Our users are using it primarily from their laptop browser and very few are using it on their mobile because the mobile is not that user-friendly."
"SAP CRM could improve by being easier to use and customer-friendly."
"The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases."
"CRM is costlier than its competitors."
"The implementation and integrations could be better. After we went into the production environment, we had some issues. Most of them were with the ERP integration. Many other issues were around the client's integrations between the ERP and CRM platforms. It could be more user-friendly. It wasn't very user-friendly initially, but now it's easier for them to use. Now, the users can use that platform better than at the beginning. We would like to see reports with more analytic features and artificial intelligence in the next release. For example, show more metrics and KPIs and more dynamic dashboards. Because the platform has some models, but it's not easy to use. It's a little complex."
"Content management is one area where SAP CRM could use some work because we were seeking a CRM solution that could store BLOB data, like PDF and email data, which takes up a lot of space in the database. Recently, we migrated to a content server, but it would be nice if CRM had built-in BLOB data management because BLOB data is a challenge we've been dealing with since last year."
"In terms of visibility of the data, there's a very limited set that we have access to and sometimes it's very difficult and not user-friendly to analyze from front end to back end. It's the biggest challenge, even if I'm working with an organization where we've implemented SAP."
"The product's pricing could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"The price is reasonable."
"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"The product is pricey."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"They should reduce the price to target small businesses."
"SAP CRM is an expensive solution and is the most challenging aspect of the solution."
"The company has seen an increase in revenue."
"The product is expensive."
"From the maintenance perspective, SAP CRM is quite expensive compared to cloud services because the current solution they're using is managed by us and we are hosting it on servers. There is the cost of hosting, and managing servers and applications. The overhead is substantial, but this solution is a legacy system. It will take some time for the customer to migrate out of it."
